Barrington Stage Company (BSC), the award-winning theatre in Downtown Pittsfield, MA, under the leadership of Artistic Director Julianne Boyd and Managing Director Tristan Wilson, presents Breaking the Code, Hugh Whitemore's biographical drama of Alan Turing, starring BSC Associate Artist Mark H. Dold. Directed by Joe Calarco, performances of Breaking the Code run now through August 2. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action!

Breaking the Code is the true story of the famed mathematician and computer science pioneer Alan Turing, the primary designer of the Turing Machine, an early computer used to solve the German Enigma code during World War II. Many believed the Turing Machine was instrumental in the Allied victory. The title refers to both the solution of the Enigma code and Turing's open admission to his homosexuality, which at the time violated not only the codes of polite society but also British law.

Also featured in the cast are Jefferson Farber (Ron Miller), Kyle Fabel (Mick Ross), Deborah Hedwell (Sara Turing), Annie Meisels (Pat Green), Mike Donovan (Christopher Morcom/Nikos), John Leonard Thompson (John Smith), and Phillip Kerr (Dillwyn Knox).

The production is designed by Brian Prather (sets), Jennifer Caprio (costumes), Chris Lee (lighting), and Lindsey Jones (sound). Michael Andrew Rogers is production stage manager.

Breaking the Code will be presented at the Boyd-Quinson Mainstage, 30 Union Street, Pittsfield. Performances are Tuesday and Wednesday at 7pm, Thursday through Saturday at 8pm, Wednesday and Friday matinees at 2pm (excluding 7/19), Sunday at 5pm. There is an additional matinee on Saturday, August 2 at 2pm. Press Opening: Sunday, July 20 at 5pm. Tickets start at $20. Low priced previews July 17-19 tickets are $15/$20. Youth ages 6-18, tickets $15/$20 all performances (subject to availability). (413) 236-8888.
